Every time we dine at Virgola it's a wonderful experience. The fatbread was just amazing and the martinis were perfection. The servers are always so attentive and personable and the decor of Virgola is so romantic and my favorite date note spot with my Valentine of 34 years. I always recommend Virgola to my friends and family.

Amazing high end Mexican food that goes with the region. I eat a lot of Mexican food, and this was some of the best I have had in a while. It is upper scale Mexican food, not street Mexican. Definitely recommend. Also the drinks are great and reasonably priced!
